Mission/Background :
Our main business is developing and marketing quantitative assays by immuno-enzymatic techniques using our developed antibodies. These advanced diagnostic products are marketed throughout the world and our reputation for quality and service is highly renowned. Recently, we incorporated a new technology for producing recombinant proteins including monoclonal antibodies using silkworms. We are aiming to use this technology for producing various products including therapeutic agents.
|
Technology & Business
|
We possess technologies for "high level expression of recombinant proteins in cocoons of transgenic silkworms". The recombinant proteins are extractable from the cocoons under the condition where most of cocoon proteins remain insoluble. This technology allows us to obtain the recombinant proteins with little amount of contaminated cocoon proteins, making it simple to purify them. Using this technology, we have successfully produced various recombinant proteins including fibrinogen, antibody, collagen (gelatin), serum albumin, growth hormone, growth factors and cytokines.
